Porcelain teacups - thick-walled vs. thin-walled

The better the tea cup matches the tea drinking experience, the better the tea enjoyment. But which teacup is the best - thick-walled or thin-walled? Thick-walled teacups have the advantage that they keep the temperature of the tea for longer. This means you can enjoy your tea in peace without it cooling down too quickly. To enjoy your tea at a pleasant temperature right up to the last sip, it is advisable to preheat thick-walled teacups.

The teacups made of Meissen porcelain, which are manufactured with the utmost precision and attention to detail, offer excellent heat insulation thanks to their thick walls and make every tea ritual a particularly long and enjoyable experience. At the same time, MEISSEN also offers thin-walled teacups for those who prefer a more delicate drinking experience. These cups are particularly suitable for teas that are served at low temperatures, such as white or green tea.

Meissen teacups: The advantage of porcelain

Porcelain is not only a visual highlight, but also impresses with its functionality. It is durable, resistant and retains its shine even after years of use. Porcelain teacups are easy to clean and only require minimal cleaning to keep them looking like new. Porcelain is also a poor conductor of heat, which means that tea cups made from this material retain the heat of the tea particularly well, allowing the full aroma to unfold. This advantage makes porcelain cups the ideal choice for tea lovers who want to enjoy their tea with every sip.

How big is a teacup?

Teacups come in different sizes, depending on the type of tea you want to enjoy. A typical teacup holds around 200 to 250 ml of tea, ideal for a classic infusion. For tea lovers who prefer larger quantities or a stronger tea blend, we also offer tea cups with a capacity of up to 350 ml. These larger cups are the perfect choice for preparing tea blends or particularly aromatic teas, where the aroma needs to develop fully.

No matter which type of tea or cup shape you prefer, at Meissen you will find the perfect tea cup made of the finest porcelain to make your tea moments something very special.
